So we know many of you have been anxiously awaiting more NEOGEO content on PlayStation Store for quite some time. With that in mind, SNK PLAYMORE is very pleased to announce today that, together with SCEA Third Party Productions, Metal Slug 3 is heading to multiple Sony PlayStation devices – PS Vita, PS4 and PS3 – this Winter.

This masterpiece in SNK’s emblematic 2D run & gun action shooting game series still continues to fascinate millions of fans worldwide to this day for its simple yet intuitive controls, refined game balance and game volume, branching paths, and intricate dot-pixel graphics.

In aiming for some of the highest-level quality of NEOGEO emulation seen on PSN yet, coupled with a set of online features the PlayStation userbase and fans of the series truly deserve, we look forward to releasing the most highly revered title in the Metal Slug series together with Sony in the coming months.

We would like to take this opportunity to thank our fans for their hunger for more content on PSN, and kind patience as well.

More details in regards to specific game features will be announced in the coming months.

woo, Metal Slug is always awesome, will totally be getting in on this action 8D. spent many a-time in arcades playing them 8). was a bit disappointed that Mercenary Kings wasnt Metal Sluggy enough, so its cool to hear theyre coming on PS4 :D

There is also somewhere second petition for retail Oreshika, but it has far less singatures.

We really need some nice web where we would be able to check all actual petitions.

Anyway it would be better to give link in weekly thread. I was planning to ask for any news about it this week. I’m kinda iritated that it is marked as digital only for Europe. So yeah, if only we would hear official voice about it… we would be able to build whole campaign just like in case of Freedom Wars.

OMG @SNK you’ve just made my PS Vita a worthwhile purchase, I LOVE LOVE LOVE Metal Slug games. I actually have the PSP game on my Vita but a full integrated “proper” release, with Trophies (pretty please) would make my gaming near complete.
